I think Duskwight elves are a really cool concept, like Drow but without the shitty pseudo-S&M "matriarchy" (that just happens to be made up of sexually appealing women to men...), but I don't really have an 'attraction' to any of the in game races. Any romance that comes up IC is a result of the player making it interesting and all.
I view it as a perfectly valid thing IC, as long as the lore of 'no half-breeds' is stuck to. If your Human wants to get married to a Miqo'te that's cool, from what I understand all the major cultures are down with that as a concept so you wouldn't be some silly special snowflaker. I do get a little 'wtf' at Lala/anyone else relationships if only because of...logistic reasons...
For friends none of my characters care about race, Drunken Comet tends to drift to other Roes if only because she feels like they 'get' her better, but she doesn't turn away any races. For relations they're about the same way, Zutoto is a bit sheltered due to her upbringing so she's not one to jump into the 'climbing' jokes some other Lalas make about other races but again, she doesn't DISLIKE any race.
Most all of characters are all fairly down with interracial pairings, my Miqo'te has some issues with cross cultures stuff due to his own history but he'd never discourage anyone from that stuff, just maybe a few snide remarks about how they should be glad they can't have a kid or whatever.
Comet, though, kinda looks down on Hellguard who go after relationships with non-Hellguard, if only because in her mind the guards are such a small culture they need MORE kids to man the volcanoes and such and learn the traditions and a cross species relationship isn't going to get that. She's not fanatic about it but maybe a few semi-private comments about how they'd do better 'thinking of their duty' or some such. Of course this is a bit of a shitty idea since her homeland is rather hurting for resources and she herself isn't exactly spending her life staring at magma craters, so I'd OOCly expect her to get called out on that shit.
